Growing Up
December 13, 2011
maybe it’s when you start to learn
the gray between the black and white
or that love is more than
tucking a stray hair behind her ear.
maybe it’s inevitability
and depression
and watching boring films on Saturday nights.
maybe it’s that moment your stomach drops
and you look at the world with dull eyes.
you cook vegetables you don’t like
and forget how to sing (badly).
maybe it isn’t responsibility;
maybe it’s just insanity.
